Here's a little book list for my own reminder sake that I wanna get soon!

The Godfather by Mario Puzo.
Yea, I know it's a real classic book but I have yet to get my hands on it! And I'm really wanting to!

ANY BOOK by Chuck Palahniuk.
In case you don't know who this author is, he's the author of The Fight Club. And his books are gorgeously witty, cynical, sarcastic, highly original, undescribably funny, lotsa dark humour, intensely insightful, out-of-this-world ideas... A very very good author with a very unique writing style and over-brimming with creativity. I've read one of his books, well, partially, "Invisible Monsters" so far. And I'm stunned for words. One of the masters of satirical literature. Check him out man. I'm definitely gonna get his other books soon!

ANY recent books by Neil Gaiman, including American Gods, Anansi Boys...
Until now I'm not sure about the Neil Gaiman's appeal since I haven't checked him out yet. But his is more of storytelling. So not a priority for now. But heard he's a pretty interesting author with tall tales as well. So might check his books out someday.

Alright, apart from that, my recommendations!

FAVOURITE AUTHORS

Richard Paul Evans
Probably similar to Nicholas Sparks' except Evans' writing is more detailed, and are rather inspiring, heartfelt and touching. Definitely not just an ordinary tearjerker. They are real-inspired stories that touches you and lingers for a while.

Johnathan Safran Foer
The BEST BEST BEST author I have ever got to know so far. He only wrote two books so far, namely Everything Is Illuminated and Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close. Both books were highly inventive, brimming with wonderful ideas and provocative philosophies that are bound to pick your mind up for a refreshing treat. Very touching plots as well. I just want to read his books again and again and again... (If you trust my taste, get his books!)

William Nicholson
He is better known for his children science fiction books but I have read his adult novel The Society Of Others. And it is instantly ranked one of the top of my favourite books. Currently I'm reading his The Trial of True Love and it is a rather attractive read as well. Need I say much?


Now for my all-time favourite genre... HORROR!!!


Richard Laymon
If you want to avoid the twists and beat-around-the-bush story plots from Stephen King's and Dean Koontz, get Laymon's books. You're in for a visual, cinematic horror-flick-alike read. Bound to make you jump till the book jumps off your hands too. But a word of caution: The books are usually sexually explicit in content.

Bentley Little
Actually I have only read one of his books so far. It's entitled Dispatch. I thought it was a really good read as the plot was highly original and rather spooky. It kinda spooked me out a little. The good point is the author is rather witty and humorous in his writing as well. So if you want a HAHA alongside a shiver, try his books.


Hahaha, how ironic is the fact that I didn't used to be a bookworm in the past. Cos I thought I could hardly finish reading those thick thick books. But well, being in NS gives me ample of time to explore new horizons. And that's why I'm here to promote my favourite reads off my shelf. Hope that if you take up my recommendations, you enjoy the reads as much as I do. =)

But I will NEVER be a librarian that's for sure. As much as I like books, I hate to be surrounded by them instead of the usual walls. Wahaha.
